THE EDGE OF HELL
By Michael Sortino

GENRE: Thriller
LOGLINE: A young priest must reconcile his doubts about death and the fate of souls when his town is terrorized by what seems to be the spirit of a convicted murderer.

SYNOPSIS:

After losing his younger sister to cancer, mid-20s priest, Gabriel Torres, takes an assignment to fill in for an old priest who recently died in an accident in the small farming town of San Simon, New Mexico. What he discovers is that the residents are under a cloud of terror. They believe the soul of a recently executed murderer has returned to claim more lives, starting with the old priest. But, there are more souls, more spirits at work than meets the eye, as dark histories, secrets and painful pasts come to light, all in the midst of a chilling series of encounters that seem to have one purpose only: to cover the town in a darkness of death and hate. Terrible allegations against the old priest come to light, as Gabriel struggles with both his calling and his faith. Is there hope for forgiveness beyond the grave, even for acts so heinous? Are there sinister spirits hell-bent on blocking the path to this hope and healing for those in this world and the next? Dante called it the Edge of Hell in his great work, The Inferno. Is this were young Gabriel has found himself? As the ghostly attacks grow more terrifying and deadly, can Gabriel survive long enough to uncover the truth and protect the surviving family members of the murderer’s first victims who are now the targets of the newfound terror? Hope is not lost, but it all seems to depend on the courage and faith of the struggling young priest. Will Gabriel find the will to fight back in time, or will he find himself lost along with the inhabitants of the town, seen and unseen, hanging precariously on the very edge of Hell?
